Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 2:53 pm on 23 March 2021.
I'd like to begin absolutely by joining you in giving those congratulations to the seven individuals who have been recognised in the High Sheriff of Dyfed awards. People have gone well above and beyond over the past 12 months in order to serve communities and to provide the healthcare and support that people need. So, I'm very happy to say 'congratulations' and extend our thanks there, and also, of course, to all of those people who have been doing incredible work and have, as yet, remained under the radar, so haven't had the opportunity to be formally recognised, but we all know, and the families whose lives have been touched will have known the kindness and the professionalism with which they've undertaken their roles as well.
This afternoon, we do have a statement on mental health and well-being support in educational settings from the Minister for Education, which I think will start to respond to some of the concerns that you've raised this afternoon. And then, tomorrow, the Minister with responsibility for mental health does have questions, and I know that there are several opportunities on the order paper to hear more directly in terms of the concerns that you've described about the mental health support available for children and young people, and the impact that the pandemic will have had on their lives.
